THEY TOLD THEIR LOVE.

Sygsnto the west we walked together,
Over the moorland OF shadow and flame,
Our souls drawn close with golden tether,
Our hearts each full oil its dearest name.
We said no word rs we walked 80 slowly
With face to the shrine Of the sinking sun,
No word was said for the silence was holv,
But we felt that some joyous thing was
done.
We said no word, but we wendell ever
Up the red slope to the sunburnt hill,
And there we sat, and never, all, never
Were the voices OF sea and wind so still
They all were waiting; they hearkened and
waited
Well they knew what we must say,
And the love in each heart was consum.
mated
With the other and this and the dying
day.
Hand in hand We sat together,
Eyes in eyes sweet meaning read
Two souls fast bound in n golden tether,
And love new risen, though day was dead.

A Busy Pastor.

Rev. Edward Judson, d. D.. q son
of Rev. Adoniram Judson, the noted
pioneer missionary, is a veritable chip
of the old block. Five years ago he
left a large and fashionable church
and large salary ut Orange, N. j., to
labor as a missionary among the poor
OF New York. He preached on the
streets for long while, and then took
charge OF the Berean Baptist Church,
corner OF Downing and Bedford streets,
whose membership has been increased
to 700 from 200. 1t is a. hive of relig-
ious activity. Itsuports seven homes
for aged people. provides employment
for INDECENT members, and has tract
repository, its first tract being written
by Chauncey NJ. Depew. All the tracts
are illustrated. A hundred girls are
taught in its sewing school IL has
also a fresh-air fund, flower mission
and an Ice water fountain. Several

the poor. Mr.. Judson will celebrate

IN DEAD EARNEST
To Secure the Right of Way for
the Santa Fe.

The meeting this morning at the
Merchants Exchange, in the interest
OF the right-of-way for the Gulf, Colo
rsdo ai.d Santa Fe railroad as asked
for by the Company, was not numer-
ously attended, but what it lacked in
numbers was made up in earnestness
and determination to secure the road.
Can't. Bowser was chairman of the
meeting and the reports of the several
committees on subscriptions and bond
was made which appeared very salts
factory TO those present. The sub
scriptions amounted to about $4,000
Ten thousand dollars was determined
upon TO raise after which those who
signed The bond would guarantee the
balance of the cost Of right-of-way.
The bond needs number of sub
scribers. The $4,000 will prob9bly be
secured during the day by the COM
mittee, but the burden should not
rest upon the shoulders a few en-
terprising citizens. 1t Was good TO
see the earnestness on the part of the
few who were present this morning,
but the few cannot take upon them
selves this great enterprise fraught
with so much interest TO every man,
woman and child in the city.
The meeting adjourned to meet at
5 o'clock this evening, and
it is earnestly wished that
this 5 O'Clock. meeting should be
represented by the wealth and enter
prise of Dallas citizens. The man
who holds back at this crisis certainly
has not the interest of Dallas at heart
II is important in the last degree that
every representative man in the city
should be present at the meeting this
evening. Dallas is moving forward
at very satisfactory pace, aud its
speed should not be checked at this
crises, for the shock would be almost
irrcparable.

to commence the use OF It for our
daughter Nellie now fourteen years

tarrh for about eight years, during
which time she has been treated Ivy
one of the best physicians In the city.
We have also tried the use Of almost
all the known remedies for catarrh,
with no more success than temporary
relied Many nights have we laid
awake to hold her mouth open to
keep her from strangling. Her hear
ing had also become affected. We
were afraid that she would never re-
cover. We have now used SIX bottles
of HALLS CATARRH CURE, and we
believe Nellie to be entirely cured. In
q few days after commencing the use
Of it we noticed q decided change for
the better, and from that right along
she has improved, until now she
breathes az easily as any one. She
sleeps well and her hearing is perfect

entirely removed. We write this I'M
